Gone with the Windworks (612)

Dungeon Capture!? Valley Windworks!!

On their way to the next town, Ash & Co., joined by their new friends Kotone & Kazunari, are relaxing. While Dawn is seeing the skills of her new Cyndaquil, Kotone's Marill runs off chasing after Team Rocket. Searching for it, Ash & Co. enter the Valley Windworks and end up stuck in a room. Will they be able to find a way out?

Cyndaquil's a little bit bratty and loves using its flames to turn Dawn's hair into an afro. That's about it.

I'd say piplup was being the brat in this episode. Eating that poffin that was for cyndaquil. Cyndaquil seems to like dawn and only gets into fights with piplup when piplup starts them. I'm glad it knows flamewheel, I was afraid that she was only going to have ember. Lol, looks like cydaquils swift will be replacing ambipom somewhat. I'm really glad Dawn got cyndquil (besides that its really cute ), it looks like she'll be using it more often and better than Ash used his.

At first, when I saw the picture, I thought, well, that that was Kotone's cyndaquil or something. From the picture, I thought (I can't stop thinking of the puns):
Dawn: Piplup use ***** slap!
Kotone: Cyndaquil use back talk/sass!
Cyndaquil (In poke language): Oh no you did not just do that!
Dawn: Piplup, retaliate!
Piplup (In poke language): Oh yes I did!

Sorry, I just thought that'd be a great caption for the picture, and a funny one (It'd be great to have caption contests for the pictures, get funny results!)
Anyways, I didn't see it, but I like the summarization that csips 26 gave. When I read it, and saw the cat fight between cyndauil and piplup part, I thought, "So, all I need to do, is make some modifications, and it'll still be funny!". So, the caption kinda fits.

First May gets bulbasaur, then she gets squirtle, and now Dawn gets cyndaquil.

Misty should've gotten a starter too! DX

ANYWAY!! This is the first DP episode I've seen in... Oh idk never. I've never watched a DP episode because I lost interest in the anime after AG. Changes in a classic anime like Pokemon annoy me, especially when its continual changes... over and over and over.
So, I honestly only decided to watch it because of the whole Pearlshipping/Ikarishipping/Pokeshipping community going crazy over it all of a sudden. I personally don't see any threat to it. Ash is obv way younger than Brock so it would be a normal thing for a girl to ask another girl about it. But I mean, the way Dawn reacted was quite acceptable. She flat out said she didn't know and had never thought of it which means she doesn't like Ash (or anyone until that point for that matter).
That's really all I have to say?
Oh, and I love when Pokemon argue!!!

-Yada yada Cyndaquil
-Why the hell is Dawn battling with Cyndaquil already?
-Haha, Piplup's been upstaged by the newcomer.
-Goddamn Kotone, put Marril back in its Pokeball before it wanders out of sight again.
-The magnemite are angry for some reason!
-Apparently they'd guard Pokemon. Okay then.
-I support and endorse TR rocking afros for the next few episodes.
-AshnCo are trapped! Oh no! And the security guard is asleep again! Double oh no!
-Aha! An air vent! Now all the boys can try to get it open while the girls stand back and talk!
-Oh jesus, Kotone is one of those girls. OOH DAWN DO YOU LIKE ASH? DO YA DO YA DO YA? HE'S SOOOOO COOOOOL!
-The vent is too small for people...but Pikachu can fit through!
-Kotone, stop putting down Afro Nerd for not being a shonen stereotype.
-Kotone, stop being a bitch about everything. You don't need double the cookies the guys get, and "ladies first" is so 1870.
-Pikachu makes everything okay by electricuting very expensive monitoring equipment while it was fighting TR to get Cyndaquil back. And the guard is still sleepy. It's funny because his incompetence puts people in danger!
-MECHA MAGCARGO. I think it's safe to safe this is the best TR mecha ever.
-Except for the part where it loses all its energy after one attack.

I'll be glad when JOHTO JOHTO JOHTO is over so the writers stop having an excuse to phone in the scripts. Both episodes this week were just boring(I seriously skipped over 80&#37; of today's episode because nothing was happening), aside from the parts where Kotone spiced things up by grating on my nerves and being a bitch to the guys. And we have to deal with her for how many more episodes? Two or three or something? Ugh.

Yes but the narrator said Kotone will be playing cupid ^^
Which should mean Dawn will maybe realize she has feelings for Ash by the end of this arc. And Dawn is different from the other girls, she might not blush like the others girls do maybe she does things differently. Guess will see in next weeks episode I expect big things from herXD
Not to turn this into a big shippy debate sorry about this. I loved the episode.

A close family member of mine died today, I put this in my sign as respect for him

maybe i am just imagining things but seemed to me like cyndaquil hit piplup several times for no reason. Before piplup returned the favor some of that could just be being clumsy while runing but it looked to me like piplup had good reason to be ticked at cyndaquil. although he did go to far with getting even he did also save cyndaquil when cyndaquil needed help.

Really?

It all started cuz' Cyndaquil was ignoring Piplup. Piplup got angry and started pecking Cyndaquil and laughed. Cyndaquil got agitated and started hitting back. From there they just kept squabbling and exchanging hits.... though in my opinion Piplup went too far with stealing Cyndaquil's poffin and and pushing Cyndaquil out of the way when they were BOTH trying to open the door...... though Piplup got shocked as a result ^^;

Was there magnezone in this episode I Heard there was or just a bunch of magnemite

Nope just a few Magnemite

Again i really liked this episode like the last

BREAK IT DOWN........D-GENERATION X OH WAIT WRONG SHOW SORRY LOL

Holy C**P THAT that cyndaquil is one hell of a battler for a new born baby like come on....Flame wheel,Swift and Smokescreen whatever happened to baby cyndaquil knowing tackle and ember lol......I like em/hER lol

Hahaha this Piplup and Cyndaquil rivalry is gonna be good i can feel it...Great Plot line if you ask me.......I don't know who to root for though

I'm liking Kotone and Kazunari (What a name...why couldn't i've been born with that cool name lol) They're sticking around for at least another 3 episodes anyway............They'll prob end up going back to Johto though cuz of Kotone's Gym Challenges

I have missed most of the DP episodes because honestly i lost interest in the anime, i wanted to check out the 1 hour special just for, you guess, Kotone and the nostalgia of Johto.

So, overall, i think this was a very entertaining episode. Kotone turned out to be a good and charming character which i would like to stick around for a lot more, a filler season if possible, she has an interesting party (mostly because of Girafarig),she is a trainer which is nice because there are many female coordinators, even Ash is into that too. Her voice is not annoying.

Team Rocket mecha was insanity, i agree with it being the best mecha ever, not the classic filler episode three-boxes-sticked-together mecha they use all the time. Wobbuffet using mirror coat, it's good seeing that thing into action.

Like the previous episode, this one wasn't good to me as well. Can somebody please explain to me how Dawn's newborn Cyndaquil being a match to Ash's Grotle. I was calling bulls*** after watching them battle. The only thing I enjoy about this episode was Piplup & Cyndaquil fighting. Piplup is really insecure for mistreating Cyndaquil like that. I mean, it was just born. Dawn should've return Piplup in its Pokeball instead of Cyndaquil during their last fight.

Yo I was saying the same exact thing. Piplup isn't going back in its pokeball until Dawn uses it for contests and after that it's back out the ball.

Ash's team right now

If you think the Sinnoh saga has been the best saga of the whole show, copy and paste this into your signature! (started by FlameRose)

If you deny any sort of existence of Iris's hair, put this into your sig (started by 5ilVer)

It was a training battle, Blaziryu. Ash chose grotle probably because Dawn's cynda is a newborn and want to give it advantage. But yeah, it's really strange how grotle keep training (get screentime) a lot, just for a newborn rookie pokemon put him on the corners a little...
